Download or read book Open to God Open to the World written by Pope Francis and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2018-07-26 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pope Francis's impact on the modern world has already proved extraordinary. It is no surprise that he was voted Time magazine's Person of the Year (in 2013), joining the likes of Martin Luther King (1964) and President John F. Kennedy (1961). Francis has turned the Catholic Church upside-down, flung open the windows of the Vatican and started to purge the church of corruption, nepotism and financial skulduggery. But above all he is engaged with the poor, the starving and the marginalised. He has made important visits to troubled spots in the world and invariably people say his appearances change everything. Pope Francis is in constant dialogue with the outside world and with the universal Catholic Church. He likes being asked questions, finding it easy to respond, and maintains a good relationship with the press. In this new book are some of his most valuable engagements in dialogue form with people of all sorts and kinds. On the one hand, there is his recent engagement with priests in Colombia who are locked in a struggle for human rights. In another lengthy piece, he talks about the importance of scripture, in a way which shows how this is a living source of inspiration. Also included are the texts of the Pope's most recent addresses in Myanmar, Peru and Chile. Open to God: Open to the World offers a fascinating glimpse into the mind and workings of this entirely different Pope. As we see in these conversations the Franciscan revolution is under way and, in spite of Francis's critics, the revolution will roll on and new horizons will be opened for the one and a half billion Catholics in the world today.

Download or read book Papal Journeys written by Antonio Spadaro SJ and published by ucanews. This book was released on 2022-07-27 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 11 travelogues in this eBook offer an insight into Francis’ character, his belief in fraternity, peace, his love for humanity and his constant desire to connect with the world. Since the pontificate of Paul VI, each pope has travelled widely led by St John Paul II who visited 129 countries in his 27 year reign. Pope Francis has continued in his predecessors’ footsteps, travelling to the four corners of the globe beginning with a trip to World Youth Day, 2013 in Brazil only four months after his election. During his travels, the pope has met Catholics on the peripheries of the global church in places like Myanmar and Iraq, Christians of all denominations, believers of other religions in Asia, Israel, and across the Muslim world. Two ideals that lie at the heart of his travels are a deep desire for both encounter and tolerance. More than any modern pope, Francis has sought encounters with our Muslim brothers and sisters in Egypt, Turkey, Jordan and Azerbaijan to Bangladesh and the Gulf States. Very often when Francis travels, Fr. Antonio Spadaro, director of La Civiltà Cattolica, has accompanied him and subsequently written an account of the trip. These “travelogues” offer an insight into Francis’ character, his belief in fraternity, peace, his love for humanity and his constant desire to connect with the world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pope Francis’ conversations with his fellow Jesuits around the world should excite everyone! 13 such exclusive conversations in beautiful eBook formats. Pope Francis uses his base in Rome as the platform for a mission to the world. That mission has some key emphases and actions that he sees as central to his and the Church’s mission right now. He focuses on those during his journeys away from Rome, often to places dear to him because they are on ‘the peripheries’. His topics and themes are popular with audiences but are very familiar. Where he gets to share what’s on his mind, on those journeys, is when he meets with the local Jesuit community. He engages and responds extemporaneously to the questions coming from his brother Jesuits.

Book excerpt: In Cecchetti’s verses there is a sort of fusion, sometimes ironic, of lyricism and intellectualism, an incessant succession of cultural interpolations, mythological and Christian afterthoughts on which the weft and warp, the whole itinerary and the passages of his lyrical discourse, his poetic proposal in which echoes and references of every era and latitude are spread: the action and the dream, the life of the present and the history, the mythology in a fascinating dialectic of techniques and meanings.

Book excerpt: Giuseppe Tartini è un giovane violinista che come tanti, per realizzare i propri sogni, è posto davanti al dilemma se seguire la via più giusta per raggiungerli o affidarsi a percorsi più rapidi, ma oscuri. All'inizio del XVIII secolo egli si impossessa, con l'inganno, di alcuni spartiti musicali, dando così inizio ad una vita di grandi successi, ma travagliata. L'intelligenza e l'intraprendenza gli consentiranno di progredire negli studi della più varia natura, tra cui la Magia e la Teurgia, e quindi di scoprire il segreto per non morire. Molti anni dopo, la vita del conte decaduto, Andrè D'Aguilles, attento studioso di antropologia del Sud-est europeo, viene sconvolta dalle Guerre Napoleoniche. Audace ufficiale di cavalleria verrà involontariamente risucchiato nella terribile Crisi di Vampirismo che sconvolgeva l'area carpato-balcanico-danubiana. Fra Moravia, Regno d'Ungheria e Balkan selvaggio, fra indovinelli, saggi ebrei sefarditi, duelli, dolore, morte, sangue e folklore si sviluppa la caccia al misterioso Signore dei Vampiri. Tartini, Paganini e Andrè simboleggiano il Male e il Bene, e le scelte che fin da giovani si è chiamati a fare.
